AGV not dropping off items in the Basic Parking template

Hi,

I am trying to insert the Basic Parking template into my model. It loads one item, but somehow it doesn't drop it off at the other control point. The pickup station is connected to a Queue, and the dropoff station is supposed to be a conveyor.

But the AGV keeps driving around with the item - going from one control point to the other.

Does somebody know, what the problem might be? I followed the instructions in the documentation about it.

Hello EssoN,

Your picture shows the default AGV Parking template with no visible modifications. There is no way to debug your model without the actual model. Attach it to this post, please.

Here it is. That's the AGV network in question.

It's driving around with one item and won't drop it off.

The actual destination of the item is the Entry Transfer. That needs to be connected to the control point or the logic can't know that this is where the item is supposed to be unloaded.

Slightly more in-depth explanation:

When arriving at a control point, the logic checks if there is an item that should be unloaded there by pulling items from the "Loaded Items" list, where the "destCP" list field is equal to the CP the AGV is at.

The code of the "destCP" field returns the first CP that is connected to the destination object of the item via a 'Location' connection. If such a location doesn't exist, no CP is returned and the item is not pulled.

By connecting: Do you mean connecting the control point to the EntryTransfer instead of the conveyor? Like with A-connect?

Yes, the same way the conveyor and queue are connected to the CPs. (The conveyor can stay connected)
